The best way for him to check his answer would be to simply plug in the value found for x into the equation.
4(2) - 6 = 2
8 - 6 = 2
2 = 2
Answer:
value of x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
∠L = ∠n
So,
ML = MN
So,
3x = x + 10
2x = 10
x = 5
value of x = 5
To add/subtract fractions you need to have a common denominator...
(2/2)(4n/15)+(5/5)(n/6)
8n/30+5n/30
(8n+5n)/30
13n/30
Answer:
1 5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
2 2/5 x 5/7
= 12/5 x 5/7
= 12/7
1 5/7
R = speed in still water
r + c = speed with current
r - c = speed against current
3.5(r + c) = 70
r + c = 20
c = 20 - r
4(r + c) = distance from pier to pier
5(r - c) = distance from pier to pier
4(r + c) = 5(r - c)
4(r + 20 - r) = 5(r - 20 + r)
80 = 10r - 100
180 = 10r
18 = r
The speed in still water is 18 km/hour
